The House of Representatives on Wednesday approved a war powers resolution aimed at ending unauthorized U.S. military involvement in Iran, marking the most significant congressional challenge yet to President Donald Trump’s handling of the conflict.

The measure, sponsored by Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.) invokes the 1973 War Powers Resolution and would require the administration to obtain explicit authorization from Congress before continuing hostilities against Iran, except in cases involving an imminent threat to the United States. The vote followed months of growing bipartisan concern over a conflict that began in.

ANALYSIS – Karma? Can this be more ironic? The notoriously anti-police and pro-BLM Democratic mayor of Louisville, Kentucky – Greg Fischer – was punched in the face and knocked to the ground by a black suspect at a Juneteenth event on Saturday, June 18 in the city’s downtown area.

His security detail did not prevent the assault nor detain the suspect, despite one agent pursuing the man after the attack.

The Blaze reported that:

Greg Gitschier — a former Secret Service agent and former bodyguard of the mayor — told WHAS-TV that “it’s becoming an upside-down world because lines that were never crossed so much in the past now seem to no longer matter.”

Video shows the punch knocking Fischer to the ground. While hit hard, the mayor did not need medical treatment.

While lines are being crossed daily in our society run amok, perhaps Fischer’s anti-police and pro-BLM actions had something to do with it.

In September 2020, at the height of the violent BLM riots, the city council declared it had “no confidence” in Fischer.

This followed a claim from at least 100 police officers that Fischer wanted them to “stand down” amid violent 2020 protests. The mayor denied he gave that order and instead blamed the police chief.

The cops also wanted Fischer to resign. And hundreds of officers were caught on video walking out on Fischer when he arrived to address them at an early June 2020 roll call.

The Blaze added:

Many commenters unleashed mockery on Louisville police’s Facebook post about the punch, with most of the derision directed toward Fischer, implying that the mayor’s policies led to the physical attack on him.

“Karma. What you allow will continue. You have allowed crime to run unabashed. It will continue,” one commenter wrote.

“Just peacefully protesting, nothing to see here,” another commenter quipped.

WLKY-TV reported that the Louisville Metro Police Department is still looking for the suspect, and released photos of the attacker:

    even his security staff didn’t really go after this dude…..how’s that “defund the Popo” working out for you now?…..

    They caught the attacker. I live outside Lville and I couldn’t believe nobody ran after the thug! Fischer blew it off by saying ‘it goes with the job’! He’s a moron like the rest of them. Did you also know a D-Jewish mayorial candidate was shot at while attending a function. That was a few weeks before Fischer’s punch out. Things are out of control the police have no trust that they will be backed up by officials. Just like everywhere else. I say “Maranatha”! Our only hope.

    “While hit hard, the mayor did not need medical treatment.”

    Shucks.

    Let’s go, Brandon! Remember in November.

    It was a “mostly peaceful” punch in the face. Oh well, maybe next time.

    I wonder just how hard members of the Louisville police department are seeking the person who assaulted the Mayor. If I served on the police force you can bet your bottom dollar my searching would be superficial, at best. Maybe the Mayor has learned that when you lie with dogs you are liable to get fleas.

    Looks like this foolish Leftist mayor can take a pretty good punch. Let’s hope some good comes out of it like the major gets some sense knocked into his head.

    “It goes with the job” Obviously not the “job” you are qualified for, or your (non)security detail. The fact this kook was able to get close enough to slug you should tell you there is a problem with ur security! Getting that close the perp could have stabbed you to death, and/or shoved a gun in your mouth and blown a hole on the backside of your cranium housing what passes for your feeble brain!

    Love this guy I would have given him a ride out of town if I had been there!

    HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA YOU GOT KNOCKED THE FUG OUT! You crooked Leftist freak!
